Sleep

I turned in listening to some other string quintets by Boccherini. They were seriously good. He's such an interesting composer. In one of the movements, in between all the elegantly formal stuff, he manages to make a string quintet sound like a flamenco guitar. It's that sound where all the hand moves rapidly up and down across the strings. Very clever. I'd love to see the score so I can find out how he did it. I don't remember anything else until I woke up at about six.
